David Bazan - Transcontinental lyrics

[Verse 1] Engine severs lower legs I feel my bruised heart beating Spinal cord remains intact Still sending and receiving [Verse 2] Lying back on shoulder blades The cargo rushing past Missing limbs beneath the cars Twitching on the tracks Click clack, now handicapped North AM transcontinental [Verse 3] I remember as I bleed Certain tales of bravery A man who's legs were trapped beneath A fallen evergreen tree He decided he would chop them off above the knee Sacrifice his shins and feet to set his torso free [Verse 4] The luxury of having been spared the hard part You'd think would be enough for me to pull this off But I'm left to bleed to d**h Now all the man I've ever been North AM transcontinental
